Dave Star (brother of the late Major Richard Star) continues his brother's legacy on Capitol Hill by calling for the passage of the act named after his brother! #MajorRichardStarAct #NoMoreDelays

This is what it cost Sgt. Brooks to serve. He’s one of the 54,000 veterans still affected by the Major Richard Star Act. The sacrifice was immediate. The impact will last a lifetime. The solution already exists. It just hasn’t been passed. #MajorRichardStarAct #Veterans #VJA

Service members shouldn’t be penalized for medical retirement | The Seattle Times seattletimes.com/opinion/servic…

The Major Richard Star Act is an about fairness to American veterans. The administration reduces retirement benefits by medical injuries in service which are two separate categories. The wounded /retired veterans are not pawns to be treated as double dippers but respected

Agreed! Thank you @SenBlumenthal senatorrichardblumenthal.substack.com/p/no-more-excu…

CURRENT SUPPORT 78 United States Senators 319 Members of the House of Representatives Strong bipartisan support across Congress. #majorstaract

On March 24, I took the fight for the 54,000 directly to Congressional leadership. I sent formal requests to @LeaderJohnThune and @SpeakerJohnson asking them to schedule a floor vote on the Major Richard Star Act. With 317 House and 78 Senate cosponsors, we have a veto-proof mandate. The only thing missing is leadership to end the “Wounded Veteran Tax.” #MajorRichardStarAct #Veterans

In Illinois, 888 veterans continue to face a gap between their service and the benefits they have earned. HR 0722, introduced in the Illinois House, highlights this challenge and calls on Congress to advance the Major Richard Star Act—demonstrating how state-level action can help drive broader solutions. We urge Governor @JBPritzker to support this effort and help ensure Illinois veterans—and veterans across the country—receive the full benefits they have earned through their service. #MajorRichardStarAct

Hundreds of veterans in Mississippi—556 to be exact—are still waiting for access to the full benefits they earned through their service. SR 58, a resolution introduced in the state Senate, brings this issue into focus and calls on Congress to advance the Major Richard Star Act. Efforts like this help ensure the voices of veterans are heard beyond the state level. We encourage Governor @tatereeves to support this resolution and help move forward efforts that better serve veterans in Mississippi and across the nation. #MajorRichardStarAct

While conflict rages politicians in DC are refusing to honor the commitments of our Combat Wounded Vets! It is time to Pass the Act! Join us next week on the hill with those affected! The Veterans Justice Alliance will be there demanding it! #MajorRichardStarAct

It is time America stepped up and did what’s right for our Combat Wounded Vets! #MajorRichardStarAct

389 days waiting. Fewer than 100 legislative days left. ⏰ The Major Richard Star Act has sat idle for over a year in the 119th Congress. We want a recorded floor vote. No more delays. No more excuses. 👇 Repost to demand action now. #MajorRichardStarAct #Veterans

Services members injured over 300+ they will deserve better than “wounded veteran tax”. Congress gets full retirement eligible at 5 years. If they fell walking into congress they’d still get workers comp… yet medically retired veterans are taxed! @SenatorWicker @SecVetAffairs
